The radicals of the Formula 12 are further derived from compounds of, for example, the following formulae:
U2 EQQ Z 2' HOaI I O-CF:
HOaS
AOaH 5 The radical A in the Formula 1 is derived from diisocyanates, for example from known. A first process is characterized in that at least one compound of the formula is reacted with a diisocyanate of the formula 16) OCN-A-NCO wherein A, R, X, U and B have the indicated meanings. A second process is characterized in that 1 mol of a tetrazo compound of a diamine of the formula U EN 6 Qna,
is coupled with 2 mols of a compound of the formula wherein A, R, U and E have the indicated meanings and X' denotes a primary, secondary or tertiary amino group.
A third process is further characterized in that a diazo compound of an amine of the formula .NH-CO-HN-A-NH-OC- I OaH K HN n x R wherein A, R, X, U and E have the indicated meanings,
is coupled with a compound of the Formula 18.
In the first process, and if X represents a primary, secondary or tertiary amino group, an appropriate procedure is to diazotize a compound of one of the formulae 20 I U NO, I, g
I H2N- wherein U and E have the indicated meanings and M denotes a removable protective group, and to couple the product, in an acid medium, with a compound of the formula I I v wherein R and X have the indicated meanings. After reduction of the nitro group or removal of the protective group, respectively, the compound of the Formula 15 is obtained. r
If X represents a hydrogen atom, an appropriate procedure is to diazotize a compound of the formula and couple the product, in an acid medium, to an amine of the formula 2 U NH wherein X, R, U and E have the indicated meanings. Here it is of advantage to protect the free hydroxy] group, before the reaction, by a suitable protective group which is subsequently split off again.
It is now possible to link 2 mols of the compound of the Formula 15 with 1 mol of diisocyanate of the Formula 16 to give a symmetrical dyestutf of the Formula 1.
In the second process, an advantageous procedure is to tetrazotize 1 mol of diamine of the Formula 17 and 13 couple the product with 2 mols of a compound of the Formula 18 to give the dyestuif of the Formula 1.
Finally, it is also possible, in the third process, to diazotize a compound of the Formula 19 and to couple the product, in an acid medium, with a compound of the Formula 18 so as to obtain the dyestuff of the Formula 1.
The condensation of amines with diisocyanates takes place in accordance with methods which are in themselves known and is advantageously effected in a polar solvent such as Water, or in a polar organic solvent such as pyridine, methanol, glycol, diethylacetamide, dimethylformamide or N-methylpyrrolidone.
The dyestuffs of the Formula 1 can be used for various purposes, for example in photographic light-sensitive materials and, in this case, particularly advantageously as image dyestuffs for the silver dye bleach process. Accordingly, valuable photographic materials which carry, on a layer support, at least one layer containing a dyestuif of the Formula 1, can be manufactured in the usual manner, which is in itself known.
In particular, these dyestuffs can be present in a multilayer material which contains, on a layer support, a layer dyed with a green-blue dyestufi', which is selectively sensitive to red, on top of this a layer dyed purple with a dyestuff of the Formula 1, which is selectively sensitive to green, and finally a layer dyed with a yellow dyestuff, which is sensitive to blue. It is however also possible to incorporate the dyestuffs of the Formula 1 in an auxiliary layer or, in particular, in a layer adjacent to the lightsensitive layer.
The dyestuffs of the Formula 1 are at the same time unusually diffusion-resistant, but also easily soluble in water, insensitive to calcium ions and capable of being bleached completely to white.
The dyestuffs according to the invention also offer numerous possibilities for varying the spectral properties and are distinguished by exceptionally pure and brilliant color shades and by high color strength.
The extremely favorable shape of the spectral absorption curve permits these purple dyestuffs to be combined in numerous ways with one each of a suitable yellow dyestuff and a suitable blue-green dyestufi. Grey shades which appear neutral to the eye over the entire density range are thereby achieved.
The dyestuffs of the Formula 1 are in particular dis tinguished by high fastness to light, color strength, diffusion resistance and solubility in water, as well as a colorimetrically favorable shape of the absorption spectrum in visible light.

(8) 6 minutes soaking; t, (9) 6 minutes, fixing as l ecified under (3);v 10 minutes soakin .1 v
A brilliant, light-fast purple wedge is'obt'ai'nedwhic i position of original-ff is completely bleached to white in the lythe greatest silver density.
Similar results are obtained by using one of the 'remaining dyestuffs of Tables I and H.
EXAMPLE 2 The following layers are successively applied to an opaque white acetate film provided with an adhesive layert' 19 1) Red-sensitive silver bromide emulsion in gelatine, containing the greenish-blue dyestutf of the formula s02 Q-CO-HN on H:
| H038 SOaH H300 no NH-OC- (2) Colorless gelatine layer without silver halide.
(3) Green-sensitive silver bromide emulsion in gelatine, containing the purple dyestuif of the Formula 203.
(4) Blue-sensitive silver bromide emulsion in gelatine, containing the yellow dyestuff of the formula (303) 1101's HaC |'|-I' N=N NH-OC (i son:
cm s ozn oo-nn- N=N HsCO Hoa S The gelatine layers can additionally contain additives such as wetting agents, hardeners and stabilizers for the silver halide. In other respects, the procedure 'followed is that the individual layers contain, per square metre of film, 0.5 g. of the particular dyestufi and the amount of silver bromide corresponding to 1-1.2 g. of silver. I
This film is exposed under a colored diapositive'with red, green and blue copying light. Thereafter, the copy is developed in accordance with the instructions indicated in Example 1. r
A light-fast document-quality positive direct-viewing image is obtained.
Similar results are obtained if instead of the dyestufl of the Formula'20'3 a different dyestufi from Tables I and His used.
' EXAMPLE 3 3.3 ml. of 6% "strength gelatine solution, 2.0 ml. of 1% strength aqueous solution of the hardener of the Formula 301, 3.3 ml. of silver bromide emulsion containing 35 g. of silver per liter, and 1.4 ml. of deionized water are pipetted into a test tube.
The components are thoroughly mixed and the mixture iskeptina water bath at 40 C. for minutes.
The casting solution, at 40 C. is cast onto a substrated glass plate of size 13 cm. x 18 cm. After solidifying at C., the plate is dried in a circulating air drying cabinet at 32 C.
A mixture of 3.3 m1. of 6% strength gelatine solution, 2.0 ml. of 1% strength aqueous solution of the hardener of the Formula 301, 0.5 m1. of 1% strength aqueous solution of the purple dyestuff of the Formula 102 and 4.2 ml. of deionized water is then cast onto the dried layer at 40 C. v
This mixture is allowed to solidify and dry as indicated above.
A strip cut to 3.5 cm. x 18 cm. is exposed with 50 Lux/cm. for 10 seconds under a step wedge through a Koda 2 +49 b ue filter.
Subsequently, the procedure described in Example 1 is followed.
A brilliant, very light-fast purple wedge is obtained, which is completely bleached to white in the position of originally the greatest silver density.
Similar results are obtained if instead of the dyestuif of the Formula 102 a difierent dyestuif from Tables I and II is used.
EXAMPLE 4 A test strip manufactured and exposed in accordance with Example 1 is processed as follows:
(1) 5 minutes development in a bath which per liter contains 1 g. of p-methylaminophenol sulphate, 20 g. of anhydrous sodium sulphite, 4 g. of hydroquinone, 10 g. of anhydrous sodium carbonate, 2 g. of potassium bromide and 3 g. of sodium thiocyanate;
(2) 2 minutes soaking;
(3) 2 minutes treatment in a reversal bath which per liter contains 5 g. of potassium bichromate and 5 ml. of 96% strength sulphuric acid;
(4) 4 minutes soaking;
(5) 5 minutes treatment in a bath which per liter contains 50 g. of anhydrous sodium sulphite;
(6) 3 minutes soaking;
(7) 4 minutes development in a bath which per liter contains 2 g. of 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolidone, 50 g. of anhydrous sodium sulphite, 10 g. of hydroquinone, 50 g. of anhydrous sodium carbonate, 2 g. of sodium hexametaphosphate and 20 ml. of a 1% strength aqueous solution of tert.-butylaminoborane;
(8) 2 minutes soaking;
(9) Further treatment as described in Example 1 under (5) to (10).
A brilliant, highly light-fast purple wedge converse to the primary original is obtained.
Similar results are obtained when using one of the remaining dyestufls of Tables I and II.
